DPS Kraftwerks Scion FRS - KW / Invidia / Kraftwerks / Enkei
 
https://s3.amazonaws.com/subscription-logos/31206.png



We just recently picked up our 2013 Scion FRS. We got a smoking deal on it courtesy of the guys from Liberty Toyota in New Jersey. The car was a carry over so it was brand new and unmolested but we are Import DPS and we take apart everything. Nothing stays stock in this place.


First Day it Arrived!!

The next morning we all sat down and came up with a plan for the car. We didn't want this crazy high horsepower car since it wasn't something most of our customers would have. We started thinking as an enthusiast who had one. What would be the first mods you would get. So we opted for Exhaust, Wheels and Suspension this month.

We purchased the KW Variant 1 Suspension since it is a great coilover kit but also a great way to lower the car and drive it daily. For Exhaust, we chose the Invidia Q300 with Titanium Tip. The Ricer tip is something we just like, we know its a preference thing. We have installed a bunch of exhaust systems over the years and the Invidia unit always seems to be the one that sounds good. Were not into the tickets for noise they give out around here!

After a couple google searches we decided on the new Enkei RS05RR Wheels. They are 18x9.5 all the way around. Wanted to do a better fitment setup but this is what Enkei had in stock that would fit so we said screw it. Car I am sure will look good with these no matter what. It is a fresh wheel.

We are an Enkei dealer and stock some of the wheels. If you see any parts on this thread such as the wheels, exhaust or suspension just let us know we would be happy to help and get you a price on that item.

rickspecd 02-27-2014 06:48 PM

We finished up some cars earlier this afternoon on our Dynojet, so we decided to use that lift to go switch the exhaust on the FRS real fast. Man, this thing looks so good. Fits perfect too, we were a bit worried the tips would touch the bumper but that was far from the case. Sounds very clean and quiet but deep. Glad we chose this system.

sound clip video. I mean who doesn't like hearing a bunch of videos before buying an exhaust system right?

Tomorrow were going to order some tires for it. If you have any recommendations we would be glad to hear it.

Test fitted the rear wheel. Didn't like how the 9.5 fit in the front. Going to get an 8.5 with better offset.

rickspecd 03-05-2014 02:57 PM

blah, 8.5's for the fronts are 3 weeks out.

Looking good solid parts list for a young project

Given you are going fi and have coils already you shouldn't have issues with that wheel size on a square set up if that's your concern. There's a good meaty tire thread that will give you a better idea of a set up like that with either 255's or 265's all around.

i know they will fit but I wasn't crazy about how far it stuck out with the offset. Want something a little less aggressive since the roads around here suck!

Thornley 03-18-2014 08:56 PM

Lookin forward to see what you do :thumbsup:

rickspecd 03-29-2014 03:34 PM

Can't wait for the wheels to come in so we can lower it.

rickspecd 04-26-2014 02:00 PM

Wheels still aren't here and Enkei is saying sometime this upcoming week. PLEASE!! I got all the piping from the Kraftwerks Kit powdercoated.

rickspecd 04-29-2014 03:19 PM

Finally rear wheels came in!

rickspecd 05-04-2014 11:22 PM

Getting started this week. Going to document it all and hopefully we can all learn a thing or two from this build.

Finally got the front Enkei RS05R Wheels in. They look great but more importantly fit good.

Kraftwerks Intercooler is next on the Installation Sheet to go on the FRS. Were getting VERY excited now.

rickspecd 05-07-2014 05:36 PM

Installation is all done on our FRS. We are going to tune it sometime this weekend. We have so much more work to do on other cars that are scheduled for tuning on Saturday. We have the original kit, now that I see all these C38's kinda wish we had got that one instead. We are going with the Ecutek and OTS Map and then seeing what delicious can do for it.

Current Mods are just the Kraftwerks Kit and Invidia Q300. Everything else factory!
